I just gave it a second look. The wheels are indeed the same size. Nevertheless I think the hardware differs. The Omni is much louder, and the head is bigger. Also the part where the balls come out look different. But maybe you are right. For us users, it is of no matter.

Yes, absolut. The omni can produce way faster balls and the amount of spin is at least double the nova. As far as I can see, the wheels are bigger and I think the motors are stronger - but I am not sure.

So, first real try with olangas app. Very good job. I could program a fairly realistic drill in a few minutes (Short underspin serve as variant, push as variant followed by a variant drive). While the app from olanga is very intuitiv and has a lot of options, the balls the robot produces lack...

I would say around 30$. Alibaba collects the tax at checkout.

My white nova s arrived today. With tax I paid roughly 210€ and the shipping took 40 days. It came with only a chinese plug, but I had a adapter and it seems to work fine. I also tried olangas webapp and it connected instantly. Then I tried a few balls and everything worked. So if anyone is...

I think the important thing for a drill is, that you can configure each ball if it should be randomized or not. So you can practice serve received and follow up. With a simple random function for all balls, this is not possible (because it is not sure, that ball one is a serve). If the server is...

Normal behaviour as with almost any robot.

A couple of month later and more than 20000 balls played, I am still very satisfied with the hardware. Absolutely no jams and I use more than 300 balls. The consistency is great too. Spin, speed and placement are spot on (as they were from day one on). The software is an absolute dissapointment...

Do you use different positions for the robot for FH and BH? For example for FH drive and BH drive, so that the angle is always diagonal?

As far as I know: the only one in this thread with a white nova is plunder. So I don't think your problems with olangas app have to do with the nova s version.

how were the ratings of the shop? what make you think the vendor is dubious?

alibaba is not the same as aliexpress. My vendor is legit. I ordererd already a omni s from him and everything was perfect. i still have to wait for the white nova. it will arrive in february 2026...

As soon as I get my machine, I will try this. Thanks for your work and if I use it, is there a way to donate you?

Ok, this confirms my observations for the nova. The topspin capabilities of the machine are not good. Underspin is ok, but for training passive blocks of a very spinny ball, the nova is not strong enough.

That is really helpful. Unfortunately I now have only 1450 TTR... Do you know what a decent topsin in your TTR range has? Thanks .. And is spinsight worth trying? What's your use case?
